‘Going Green’ author to speak at YCP April 18

Vanessa Farquharson, a journalist and author from Toronto, Canada, will be speaking about her memoir “Sleeping Naked is Green” at 7 p.m. April 18 in York College’s Alumni Hall.

Her memoir details the year Farquharson spent making 366 changes to her lifestyle to live in a more environmentally-friendly manner. She sold her car and washed her hair in vinegar, but also made simple changes like trying an eco-friendly lip balm.
